  2. DNA extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_extraction

    DNA storage is an important aspect of DNA extraction projects as it ensures the integrity and stability of the extracted DNA for downstream applications. [ 15 ] One common method of DNA storage is ethanol precipitation, which involves adding ethanol and a salt, such as sodium chloride or potassium acetate, to the extracted DNA to precipitate it ...

  4. Transcription (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_(biology)

    Transcription is the process of copying a segment of DNA into RNA for the purpose of gene expression.Some segments of DNA are transcribed into RNA molecules that can encode proteins, called messenger RNA (mRNA).

  5. Central dogma of molecular biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_dogma_of_molecular...

    Transcription is the process by which the information contained in a section of DNA is replicated in the form of a newly assembled piece of messenger RNA (mRNA). Enzymes facilitating the process include RNA polymerase and transcription factors. In eukaryotic cells the primary transcript is pre-mRNA. Pre-mRNA must be processed for translation to ...

  6. Spin column-based nucleic acid purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_column-based_nucleic...

    The different stages of the method are lyse, bind, wash, and elute. [1] [2] More specifically, this entails the lysis of target cells to release nucleic acids, selective binding of nucleic acid to a silica membrane, washing away particulates and inhibitors that are not bound to the silica membrane, and elution of the nucleic acid, with the end result being purified nucleic acid in an aqueous ...

  7. Acid guanidinium thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform extraction

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_guanidinium...

    RNA partitions in the aqueous phase, while proteins and DNA partition into the organic/interphase (left). The RNA is then precipitated in an alcohol (right). Acid guanidinium thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform extraction (abbreviated AGPC) is a liquid–liquid extraction technique in biochemistry and molecular biology.

  8. Boom method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boom_method

    This method is one of the most widespread [6] [7] methods for isolating nucleic acids from biological samples and is known as a simple, rapid, and reliable [2] method for the small-scale purification of nucleic acid from biological sample. This method is said to have been developed and invented by Willem R. Boom et al. around 1990.

  9. Translation (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(biology)

    First, convert each template DNA base to its RNA complement (note that the complement of A is now U), as shown below. Note that the template strand of the DNA is the one the RNA is polymerized against; the other DNA strand would be the same as the RNA, but with thymine instead of uracil. DNA -> RNA A -> U T -> A C -> G G -> C A=T-> A=U
